About the role
- Software Development (Back-End Focus) - Drive the design and implementation of production software systems that power Karius’s analytical pipelines.
- Design, build, and maintain back-end software systems spanning analytical pipelines, APIs, data processing services, and supporting infrastructure.
- Implement scalable, reliable, and secure services for ingesting, storing, and processing large volumes of genomic data.
- Collaborate with bioinformaticians on integrating algorithms and analytical pipelines into production systems.
- Contribute to architecture and design reviews, emphasizing performance, reliability, and maintainability.
- Contribute to peer code reviews, design discussions, and sprint planning as part of the team.
- Software Testing - Build and sustain the frameworks and processes that ensure our systems meet the highest standards of reliability, performance, and compliance.
- Develop and maintain test automation frameworks and tools (e.g., Pytest, Postman, custom command-line tooling/scripts) to ensure comprehensive coverage of unit, integration, regression, and system-level testing.
- Translate requirements and specifications into well-structured test cases and test plans, ensuring traceability between requirements, risks, and test cases using modern tools and processes.
- Support the execution and documentation of verification and validation (V&V) activities, ensuring compliance with regulated software development practices.
- Advocate for testability and quality throughout the software lifecycle, helping shape designs that are easier to validate and maintain.
Requirements
- BS or MS degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Bioengineering, or a related technical field involving algorithms or coding (e.g., physics or mathematics).
- 5+ years of experience designing, developing, and maintaining production software systems (Python preferred), ideally with experience in regulated environments (e.g., healthcare, life sciences).
- Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and developing distributed cloud-based systems using modern technologies and flows (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes, Git/GitHub, CI/CD, Kafka, GraphQL).
- Experience across the full software development lifecycle, including project management, requirements traceability, and test automation using Python and modern frameworks (e.g., Pytest, Postman, Playwright, Selenium).
- Familiarity with bioinformatics tools and genomic data formats is a strong plus.
- Familiarity with regulations pertaining to IVD and/or LDT development (e.g., 21 CFR Part 11, 21 CFR Part 820, CAP/CLIA, NYS DOH) and related standards (e.g., IEC 62304, ISO 13485, ISO 14971) is a strong plus.
